Tour of the Original ABQ Library and a Look into the Book

Albuquerque’s Main Library opened its doors on March 23, 1925 on the northwest corner of Edith Boulevard and Central Avenue. For fifty years, the Main Library provided books to the local community, held art exhibitions, and offered public programming. Since 1978, the formerly named Main Library, now known as the Special Collections Library, has grown its archival collection to over 100,000 materials that focus on local, state, and regional history and culture.
Please join me for a tour of the library, including the Book Room, which houses a history of printing and bookmaking.
Parking is limited to street parking, with many spaces either metered or in residential neighborhoods, so please carpool if you are able.
See you there!
